Improper Neutralization of Special Elements in Output Used by a Downstream Component ('Injection')

CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H

CVE	CVE-2020-7947
CVSS	Critical (9.8)
Publicly Published	April 1, 2020
Last Updated	January 22, 2024

Description

An issue was discovered in the Login by Auth0 plugin before 4.0.0 for WordPress. It has numerous fields that can contain data that is pulled from different sources. One issue with this is that the data isn't sanitized, and no input validation is performed, before the exporting of the user data. This can lead to (at least) CSV injection if a crafted Excel document is uploaded.
